Cybersecurity AI Hackathon
Join us for a Cybersecurity AI Hackathon, career, and upskilling event bringing together students, emerging tech talent, industry professionals, universities, employers, sponsors, and senior cybersecurity leaders across South Florida.
This hands-on challenge is designed for participants who want to build practical experience in cybersecurity, AI, automation, and real-world MVP development. Teams will be cognitively diverse, combining students, early-career talent, professionals looking to upskill, and senior technology or cybersecurity mentors.
Using ITRADE’s horizontal AI orchestration platform, teams will explore what type of cybersecurity, workflow, automation, or business-focused MVP can be built in a focused 3–4 hour sprint. Participants will present their solutions to a judging panel, and winning teams will receive 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prizes.
The event is also timed to help students prepare before major technology internship applications open, including opportunities such as FPL, while giving working professionals a hands-on way to upskill in AI and cybersecurity.
This will be a decentralized, multi-campus event with in-person participation across university and partner hubs, plus virtual access through the ITRADE Virtual Theater for anyone who cannot attend in person.
